Digitization of film, and more particularly film scanning, includes capturing light transmitted through the film so as to acquire a digitized image. This includes a captured frame comprising a digitized image of at least a portion of at least one image frame of a sequence of image frames, and at least a portion of one or more transport perforations. The method can further include determining an image offset corresponding to at least the captured frame on the basis of a comparison between at least one detected edge in the captured image and a corresponding datum location. A signal representing the image offset can be generated to enable alignment of at least the captured frame.

According to one embodiment, a system includes a processor and logic in and/or executable by the processor to cause the processor to: initiate a capture operation using an image capture component of the mobile device, the capture operation comprising; capturing video data; and estimating a plurality of motion vectors corresponding to motion of the image capture component during the capture operation; detect a document depicted in the video data; track a position of the detected document throughout the video data; select a plurality of images using the image capture component of the mobile device, wherein the selection is based at least in part on: the tracked position of the detected document; and the estimated motion vectors; and generate a composite image based on at least some of the selected plurality of images.

A wearable device comprises a left view optical stack for a viewer to view left view cinema display images rendered on a cinema display and a right view optical stack for the viewer to view right view cinema display images rendered on the cinema display. The left view cinema display images and the right view cinema display images form stereoscopic cinema images. The wearable device further comprises a left view imager that renders left view device display images, to the viewer, on a device display, and a right view imager that renders right view device display images, to the viewer, on the device display. The left view device display images and the right view device display images form stereoscopic device images complementary to the stereoscopic cinema images.

A method of digitizing an audio track carried on an elongate recording medium, such as a movie film, includes transporting the recording medium containing the audio track past a reader to enable sequential reading of the audio track. The reading of the audio track generates an analog output signal. The method also includes sensing a rate of transportation of the recording medium, and sampling the analog output signal at a sampling rate determined on the basis of the sensed rate of transportation to digitize the analog output signal. A system for digitizing audio is also disclosed.

Embodiments of this disclosure disclose an image processing method and apparatus, a terminal, and a storage medium. The method includes: obtaining a to-be-processed negative image and initial color values of pixels in the negative image in a first color space; inverting the negative image to obtain inverted image data, inverted color values of pixels in the inverted image data being determined according to the initial color values of the pixels in the negative image; performing value equalization on intermediate color values of the pixels in a range corresponding to a second color space according to the inverted image data, to obtain digital color values of the pixels; and obtaining digital image data of the negative image according to the digital color values of the pixels.

A mounting device that, during movement of a mounting head, captures a first image that includes components that are collected in the mounting head and first fiducial marks, captures a second image that includes the components that are collected in the mounting head and second fiducial marks, and generates an image of the components that are collected in the mounting head using the first image and the second image based on the positional relationship of the first fiducial marks and the second fiducial marks. At this time, the mounting device captures the first image after the components and the first fiducial marks enter the same imaging range prior to the second fiducial marks entering the imaging range, and after that, captures the second image after the first fiducial marks come out from the imaging range and the components and the second fiducial marks enter the same imaging range.

There is herein described a method and apparatus for the calibration and validation of motion picture scans.

An endoscope system is provided with: an endoscope apparatus capable of recording a picked-up endoscopic image; a memory card attachable to and detachable from the endoscope apparatus, the memory card transmitting the picked-up endoscopic image; and a PC or a mobile terminal having a function of communicating with the memory card and recording the endoscopic image transmitted from the memory card. The endoscope apparatus, and the PC or the mobile terminal are connected via wireless communication. When freeze processing is executed, the endoscope apparatus transmits an endoscopic image from the endoscope apparatus to the PC or the mobile terminal.
